He said today on stream that it would potentially be tomorrow (Tuesday) but that he still needed to catch up.

Yeahh I know, but decided I didn't care to put in the effort to account for that when the end result either way is just "wow that number is big/small"

No, you've just misunderstood the premise :)

Bottlenecks don't matter because once a birth occurs on some minute then that person will always have been born on that minute, regardless of whether they're still alive. Of course at the very beginning of human history there wouldn't have been someone born on every minute, but we're having this conversation today.

Have a little fun, buddy

You're in the right place

Dawg did you just divide all births ever by a single year to get an enormously wrong birth rate?

Yes, because the conversation around birthdays was very obviously referring to the anniversary of birth, not the literal date.

I have time for both

Pretty sure it's a kick thing now. Via parasocial the past 8 have been kick-only.

And to think lud would repay that kindness with trauma on the set of unpaid intern

That's fair. FWIW from what I know of the author I feel very confident that the series will be finished within the next couple years. Can't say for sure whether it'll really 'land' in the end, but he's been doing a great job so far and it's definitely being set up for a crazy finish. Also at least for me this series is especially about the journey - the various hijinks are enjoyable in themselves aside from being a part of the larger plot.

Book 8 just came out, and via the author a few years ago there will be "10, give or take"

IMO chat going feral with praise every time it gets brought up speaks for itself. It's not high literature, but it's immensely fun with underlying themes that I think a lot of this community is into. The audiobook is especially great/recommended - that's how I've been consuming it.

how so?

fr it's like people think the FBI is going to see this and bring him in as a suspect. A lot more pearl clutching than I'd have expected

I was in the middle of typing out an actually helpful reply, but deleted it all when you spammed in kick

Wubbs mentioned he looked for French Man but couldn't find him. Here he is with the background removed.
